WOW.
Incredible footage of people (and beasts)working very, very hard! I live in Seattle and own a 1900 house; it's quite something to see how the framing and floors were probably milled back then to build it.

All Kids Love Log!
This 20s silent film shows logging and lumber cutting practices in the Pacific Northwest, including the felling of giant redwoods. This is quite interesting from a historical perspective, since the film has a raw, rough quality that convinces you that youâre seeing the real deal. Interest is added by showing some of the more esoteric parts of the lumberjackâs job, such as shoeing the oxen, though their general treatment of the beasts might upset animal lovers. All in all, this is a mildly interesting portrait of logging practices during the 20s.
Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: **. Weirdness: ***. Historical Interest: *****. Overall Rating: ***.

'Give em the axe, the axe the axe!'
In this pretty typical forestry feature, the ways trees are felled and taken to the mill is shown, cira 1920's. We first see how a tree is transported (using either mules or, um oxen, (cover your eyes if you don't want to see animal suffering) and then to the mill. We then go to the Cascades where it's pretty much the same thing. In the end, realizing that they've pretty much bored us over, the filmmakers treat us to a barrel rolling contest Yee-haw!
